Happy Mother's Day Cards.

I was gifted some beautiful papers by a Canadian Company called "Paper-Garden.ca"
They are also hosting a fun "Mother's Day card challenge"(click the link to check out everyone's cards)...you can vote on your favourite card...but with me being in true procrastinator fashion, I made my cards the last day of the challenge.
I wanted to use this beautiful shimmery cardstock for my card.
I also used this cute image from Redonkulous Designs now named Redonkadoodles Designs and coloured it up with my Copic markers.

Here is the cardstocks that Paper-Garden.ca sent me.
Look at all of those pretty colours 💗
I wish you could see the shimmer in some of these papers.
They are all different paper weights. From really thick cardstock to very thin.

I wanted my grandson Sawyer to make his mommy a handmade card.....you know, start them when they are young, teehee.

I cut the base of the card out of the white thick cardstock, as well as the card front.
I then cut a heart shape out with my cricut to use as a mask.

Here is Sawyer and I making the card.
I put an old hair dying t-shirt on him so he wouldn't get his clothes dirty...but I should have had one on too, as he kept grabbing onto me, lol.
I found out Sawyer is like his grandma Tracy...he doesn't like dirty hands, lol.

What I wanted to do with this card was to have Sawyer put his finger prints all over the card.
But with him not liking dirty fingers...we only got a few fingerprints and then just used the Tim Holtz paint daubers to add the rest of the colour.

After adding the colour, I took the mask off of the card front to reveal the heart center.

I searched for a Mother's Day stamp in my never-ending stash..but I could not find one.
That was until I made the Mother and Son card above and found that one on one of my Julie Nutting Prima Doll stamps....but I think the "I love you" works just as well.

Here is the inside of Sawyer's Mother's Day card.
I figured we might as well use the heart mask inside of the card...and if I would have saw that stamp that was right in front of my face, I would have used that instead of my messy hand writing.

I am entering these cards in the following challenges.

Eva's Baby Shower

Today was Eva's baby shower !!!
I have to tell you holding a new born baby, sure makes me miss those baby days.

Here is my beautiful niece Jennifer with her precious baby girl.
Two beautiful girls.

I didn't want to share her :)
I could have held her all day…and almost did, teehee.

Here are the outfits that Ashley and I picked out for her.
Every little girl needs a tutu ;)
And we couldn't forget the matching headband :)

We also found this adorable dress.
Well we also needed a cardigan to keep her warm, a matching headband, tights and of course little dress shoes.
Oh boy did we have fun picking these out ;)

My SIL, who hosted the shower, made this cute centre piece.
The daisy's are made out of diapers and the rose buds out of face cloths…so cute.

Here is the baby card I had made.
I made this a while ago, if it looks familiar.
I coloured the baby with my Copic markers. I was playing with how to make the balloons transparent.
The image is from Redonkulous Designs.

Here is the envelope that I had made and I decorated the front with some washi tape.
Added a label as well, again, decorated with washi tape and added Eva's name with my label maker.

That is not all I had made Eva, but I will share that project in tomorrows post, as this one, is pretty picture heavy as it is :)

I hope you all had a creative Sunday.
Time for me to watch the Walking Dead ;)

Tracy :)
